Dickey is a knuckleballer, he doesn't even know if he'll have his stuff tonight....if it's working, he can be tough to hit - he just started throwing the knuckler a couple years ago and really only figured it out last year, when he was the the AAA pitcher of the year in the Pacific Coast League with an ERA around 2.
His stuff is intriguing -- what other knuckler can also throw a 90 mph fastball? Unfortunately, when his ball isn't dancing it becomes a batting practice fastball and this makes betting on him a very risky venture...
The M's are worth watching - they are better than their record and will offer some sweet prices in the coming weeks...tonight w/ Dickey against Halladay I'm passing
